Hi @Charliebaby019, thanks for reaching out to us. Currently, we are migrating the code and examples to Vite + TypeScript. Since TypeScript offers several advantages over JavaScript, we’re hoping that this would help our developers create robust and maintainable code especially for large-scale complex applications.

It’s important to note that TypeScript code can be easily converted to plain JavaScript. Simply remove the types, return types, and some other syntactic features, and the code will work as standard JavaScript.

That said, TypeScript adds great value for IDE integration and development, making it easier to catch errors early and improving overall development efficiency.
